An Indian Air Force (IAF) helicopter made an emergency landing in an agricultural field in Nalgonda district of Telangana on Thursday owing to a ‘technical snag’.

No one was injured, police said.

The chopper which was headed to Air Force Station, Hakimpet, in Hyderabad from Vijayawada in Andhra Pradesh made an emergency landing in the field due to some “technical issues”, a senior police official told PTI.

Another helicopter with experts rushed to the spot and after the technical snag was fixed the chopper took off, the official said, adding it was precautionary brief landing due to some “technical issue”.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
